Close To You

"May the bright joys of my love shower you
with energies to keep you inspired today!
You are the sun in my life.
Come shine on me always..."

CLOSE TO YOU
Carpenters
(Burt Bacharach)
 

 


             CM7               B7sus4   B7    

Why do birds suddenly appear  

          Bm7              Em7

Every time you are near

CM7                         

Just like me, they long to be 

GM7

Close to you
              CM7                               B7sus4  B7    

Why do stars fall down from the sky     

          Bm7                Em7

Every time you walk by? 

CM7                                        

Just like me, they long to be

GM7 

Close to you



C

On the day that you were born the angels got together

            Bm7                                        E7sus4 E7

And decided to create a dream come true 

                C

So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold  

                                                 D

And starlight in your eyes of blue



That is why all the girls (boys)  in town  

Follow you all around

Just like me, they long to be 

Close to you



(Instrumental: Shift the chords one fret higher)
On the day that you were born

The angels got together

And decided to create a dream come true

So they sprinkled moondust in your hair of gold

And starlight in your eyes of blue.



That is why all the girls (boys) in town

Follow you all around

Just like me, they long to be

Close to you

Just like me (Just like me)

They long to be

Close to you

Wahhhh, close to you.

Wahhhh, close to you.

Hahhhh, close to you.

Lahhhh, close to you.
